They Can Easily do that in 3rd Grade!

I haven’t been in education for a long time. Over ten years or so. But through my experiences, I have seen what was once required in a grade or two higher is now taught lower.

One of the most frustrating things about education is that there is a lack of discipline across the board. Students seem to get away with almost anything and there are no consequences. I’m so tired of obnoxious behavior, disrespect, physical violence by students and NOTHING happens. If they go to the office, they are back within…
